DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Summary: The primary specific aim of this R21 project is to develop visual stimuli for a computer- based, comprehensive, assessment of Social Information Processing (SIP) in adults. The secondary specific aim is to perform a preliminary study of the relationship between this enhanced assessment of SIP and an assessment of Emotional Information Processing (EIP). SIP is concerned with the various processes (many of which are automatic) involved in the assessment and disposition of social interaction. SIP has long been studied in children and adolescents with externalizing disorders in which population multiple deficits (e.g., reduced encoding of social cues, hostile attribution bias) in SIP have been demonstrated, particularly in relation to childhood trauma and abuse and the development of aggressive behavior. While this work has led to a long and productive series of studies in children/adolescents, little work on SIP in adults has been done. This is largely because of a lack of adequate tools to assess SIP in adults. In this R21 project, the PI proposes to use the Adult SIP Vignettes he has already developed as the basis for the development of a series of visual presentation stimuli relevant to SIP. The first set of visual stimuli, in the form of "illustrated storyboards", will be incorporated onto a computer-based presentation platform (E-Prime) and tested in Healthy Volunteers and in subjects with Intermittent Explosive Disorder. If these visual stimuli prove effective in the assessment of the various aspects of SIP (especially in the case of the first SIP Step of "encoding"), the stimuli will then be adapted into brief "video clips", which will in turn be tested again in a second group of Healthy Volunteers and subjects with IED. A series of reliability and initial validity studies will be done for both the "storyboards" and the "video clips". These include studies of internal consistency, test-retest reliability, Healthy Volunteer vs. IED group differences in SIP parameters, and correlation with relevant convergent and divergent measures (e.g., automatic hostile thoughts, aggression, history of childhood trauma, etc.) and Emotional Information Processing (accuracy of identifying facial emotion). Relevance: SIP is a critical component to the process involved in generating aggressive behavior in response to social interaction. There are no standardized measures of SIP in adults and no assessment that is delivered in a controlled fashion. In addition, there are no standardized stimuli for SIP assessment that can be used in imaging environments. Development of such measures is critical for the further scientific study of SIP and for its integration in neurobiologhical research.

描述（由申请人提供）：项目摘要：该R21项目的主要特定目的是为成人的社会信息处理（SIP）进行基于计算机的，全面的评估（SIP）开发视觉刺激。次要的特定目的是对这种增强的SIP评估与情绪信息处理（EIP）评估之间的关系进行初步研究。 SIP关注的是评估和处置社会互动的各种过程（其中许多是自动的）。长期以来，SIP已在患有外在疾病的儿童和青少年中进行了研究，在这些疾病中，已经证明了人群多种缺陷（例如，社会线索的编码减少，敌对归因偏见）已被证明，尤其是与儿童创伤和虐待以及侵略行为的发展有关。尽管这项工作导致了对儿童/青少年的漫长而富有成效的研究，但在成年人中很少进行SIP的工作。这主要是因为缺乏评估成人SIP的足够工具。在这个R21项目中，PI提议使用他已经开发的成年SIP小插图作为开发与SIP相关的一系列视觉表现刺激的基础。以“插图故事板”形式的第一组视觉刺激将被纳入基于计算机的演示平台（E-Prime），并在健康的志愿者和患有间歇性爆炸性疾病的受试者中进行了测试。如果这些视觉刺激在评估SIP的各个方面有效（尤其是在“编码”的第一个SIP步骤中），则刺激将被简短地调整为简要的“视频剪辑”，然后将在第二组健康的志愿者和IED中再次测试。 “故事板”和“视频剪辑”将进行一系列可靠性和初始有效性研究。其中包括研究内部一致性，重测可靠性，健康志愿者与IED组的SIP参数差异，以及与相关的收敛和不同措施（例如，自动敌对思想，攻击性，儿童创伤的历史等）以及情绪信息处理（确定面部情绪的准确性）的相关性。相关性：SIP是响应社会互动产生侵略行为的过程的关键组成部分。成人没有标准化的SIP措施，也没有以受控方式进行的评估。此外，没有用于SIP评估的标准化刺激可以在成像环境中使用。这种措施的发展对于对SIP的进一步科学研究及其在神经生物学研究中的整合至关重要。
